text: London / Remote in UK<p>User interfaces in web browsers using jQuery.<p>I have some interesting bits of user interface that need creating. If you're up for a bit of a challenge, send me an email with links to your work.<p>I suspect it's in the order of a few weeks work, pretty much self-contained, and doesn't have to be done in one go. You'll need to come to one or two meetings in London, but apart from that, can work anywhere in the UK (geographic restriction due to nature of information being processed).<p>My contact details are in my profile.
